Dishonorable Mentions.

So before I start my list of Dishonorable Mentions, I want to take a little time to make sure every one knows what I am on about. First off some of the shows are or wear very good.
So some of the reasons that things end up on this list are as follows.

Also on a note I will most likely not use the proper name of any long named show in this. (I.E. He-man not He-man and the masters of.... O look I seamed to have stopped caring)

A:They Suck. Plain and simple they are just terrible shows, and to even get on this list, some one some wear must have at least watched the shows, so it stands to reason that some one liked them, and I will upset some one with this list, to which I answer. "Harden the hell up."

B:Good But over rated and or I did not get them.
These are shows that I will openly give had something going for them. Where they good? Most likely not, but they wear not bad, some of them I will actually tell you where very good, but simply wear not for me, and some are just overrated for one reason or the other.

C:Jumped the Shark.
Plain and simple these are shows and simply should have quite at some point.
In new seasons they will have a few good episodes each season, but nothing like the original runs.

D:Hit and Miss.

E: Doug.





GI Joe. (Type A)
Lets not mince words here. This show SUCKS.
Simple put there is NOTHING good about this show and it has all of the major flavor groups of sucking. Low production value, Bad voice acting, boring, lame, no real story to be seen.
And the worst part is that it was popular. I'm not entirely sure how or why. As a kind I always thought over and over again, "OMG this sucks, why would any one watch this. I'm going to go watch something get eaten on the discovery channel." Also this show manages to be mildly racist on top of it. (That is to say racist without being meaning to do harm, and I'm normally not a big fan of bitching about that. This and a few other shows on the list are good examples of why you don't let toy sells control your show.

He Man. (Type A)
See above. Pretty much every thing that could be said about with the exception of the mild racism, But with a great deal more.... Well gayness. (Not that there is anything wrong with that) But again as a kid I was like. "This sucks, and that guy in the pink shirt is kind of gay... I'ma go watch something get blown up on the Discovery Channel."

Jem/Carebares/My Little Pony/Rainbow Bright/She-ra. (Type A)
Really these shows are the little girl targeted versions of the above, Shows meant to sell toys. And they have basically every problem the above do. Jem and GI Joe being the worst offenders because they wear stupid and often... well just bad for kids. No really.. Watch Jem again it's mind poison for little girls.



The Transformers. (Type B)
Ya ya, I know "how can you dislike Transformers!" And the simple answer is... I don't I don't feel one way or the other about Transformers, I always thought it was boring, It had some very good things going for it, and it also had some terrible things going for it, It's basically on the list for the sheer overrated factor. So in short, GOOD, but not THAT GOOD.

Thundercats. (Type B)
Three things to be noted.
1: This is in fact a American Cartoon. Allot of people think its Japanese.
2: This show was... Alright It had allot going for it, but basically had allot of stuff weighing it down as well.
3: This show got a huge popularity boost because of Cheetara... Just saying.
It had a alright story line when they stuck to it, It had a Pretty bad ass bad guy. (Always a plus with me) And it had Cheetara. (Always a plus with me) But It also had a over abundance of the required 1980's annoying sidekick/cute pet. And the Main character had He-man (Or rather Prince atom) levels of annoying twit going on for him. On a note the remake is nothing but a Improvement over the classic.

Beavis and butt-head. (Type B)
OK so right out front, I watched this show, And I liked it... but it was a guilty plesure and is just bad, it is however one of those things that gets into the. 'So bad its good' area, and 'made to be bad levels.'

The Ren and stimpy show. (Type B)

Same as above... Only... This one was much more a 'So stupid is Zen' thing going on for it.
Brilliant but at the same time to far out there to really be anything other then blatant idiot indulgence. (And now to make every one mad) This show dose in fact have a modern equivalent.
So much so that I'm going to include in here and not on its own installment. Spongebob. Yay I said it, Spoungebob is the modern reincarnation of the Ren and Stimpy show. Right down to the random Diseased images.

Daria. (Type B)

This show is on here because Wile Brilliant. (And I mean that in a much purer way the on the ohter Type B's) This show is... Just boring. I would still watch it, but I would never seek it out.

South park. (Type C)
The next few are going to get allot of flak. But Simple put south park should have stopped at some point, or at the very least started making much smaller seasons, you can now tell when they are just putting a episode out to be putting on out.

Family guy. (Type C)
Same as above only a little less, I find newer episodes of Family guy nearly as good as old ones, they just seam to be... more preachy and up there own ass now then they once wear.

The Simpsons. (Type C)

~Sigh~ This one really hurts me, Really as some point this show went from constant gold to... three or four good episodes a season, and then a bunch of crap ones.

King of the hill. (Type D)
Really Type D's are just Type C that never had a golden time. They are just hit and miss. One episode might be brilliant then the next is just stupid.
Kind of the hill never set well with me because it was always boring and relied on way to much stupid 'redneck' humor for me, That is to say making fun of rednecks. (And trust me I make enough fun of people from Texas as it is) And the sad part, The main character in this, is easily the most likeable one out of Type C-D. The real question is... Why the hell dose Hank hang out with these people?

American Dad. (Type D)
This one is more hit and miss by the moment, 90% of the episode is stupid and boring and the 10% is really funny. But over all its just to inconsistent for me.

Doug. (Type E)
Ahh Doug....
This is a show that really confounds me.
See the thing is, this show is almost a work of art, and I have watched the entire thing. (Because I have a friend that loves it) And I can totally see why. The Problem is simple that this is THE MOST BORING THING EVERY MADE! It's like watching lions eat a already dead Zebra, Amazing and terrible all at the same time.

Simply put I think you ever get Doug or you don't and if you do it transcends the boringness and becomes interesting.
